Nope, Not Gonna Happen

Posted by Bob Ryan, Globe Staff March 20, 2009 08:34 PM

There was a great roar with 6:35 left in the first half of the game between No. 1 seed Louisville and No. 16 seed Morehead State as Morehead's Steve Peterson tipped one in to give the Eagles a 24-22 lead.

People were still buzzing at halftime, since Louisville's lead was just 2 at 35-33.

Unlike East Tennessee, Morehead was in the game because of its offense, rather than despite it. The Eagles were actually making shots.

But reason and order have been restored. Louisville is in the midst of a 17-4 run to open the second half. The perfect records of 1s vs. the 16s will remain intact. There will be no history made here at the University of Dayton Arena.
